    Yes, this stuff can increase your tanning results up to 50 percent, but most tanning places think they can charge you out the arse.

    It's a quantity thing; I buy in larger quantities for my salon, so I can get my lotions at almost half the cost of others; most times we pass it on, sometimes we dont.

    Anyway, your best bet is to check around; stay away from the larger national chains; they are told what to sell and how much. The better mom and pop places can sometimes cut you a deal.

    And NO, you can't buy anything at Walmart. Another place to look is at a cosmetic store like Sally's; they sometimes have good stuff on the shelves. Just make sure when you smell it it isn't rancid; make sure you feel it - shouldn't be watery; and when you shake the bottle it sounds full.

    If all else fails, I'll hook you guys up.
    Since we have an expert in the house, what is one particular lotion that offers the best bang for the buck out of those brands you mentioned?

    Depends really. If you don't mind smelling like a woman, there are a ton of great lotions.

    If you're looking to smell like a guy, I'd go with the following:

    Hero Worship by Designer Skin
    Hempz Black label accelerator or bronzer
    Smile Your Darker by Designer Skin

    If smell isn't really a factor...

    Smile by Designer Skin (not the same as above)
    Hustle by Designer skin (should be about 20 bucks, good entry level bronzer)
    Secret Rapture by Designer Skin (I've used this one a lot)
    Radically Hemp By Protan (not a bad starter, pretty inexpensive)


    If there are any that a particular salon pushes you go to, let me know. I'll be happy to tell you what they likely paid for it, and if they're telling you the truth about it.

    Happy Tanning!
